what's for dinner tonight {crockpot fajitas}.


i've been on a mexican food kick these days... with frequent runs to taco bell, i decided i needed a healthier alternative to help aid my mexican food pregnancy cravings.

healthy + crockpot cooking = my dream come true.

not even joking. how could it get any better than this combo?? i have fallen into the pinterest trap... but it is a wonderful place for me to gather many ideas and inspiration sources, especially recipes. so when i found this crockpot fajita recipe, i knew i had to try it. and soon.

here it is. SUPER delish.

crockpot fajitas

* 3 chicken breasts, sliced into strips
* 1 lb. thinly sliced steak, sliced into strips
* 1 yellow onion, sliced into half circles
* 1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
* 1 green pepper, sliced into strips
* 2 t. chili powder
* 1 t. ground cumin
* 1/4 t. salt
* 1/2 c. chicken stock
* 3 T. lime juice

- prepare meat and veggies. place in crockpot. sprinkle with spices, top with chicken stock and lime juice.
- cook on high 3-4 hrs or low 6-7 hrs.
- serve with your favorite fajita fixings:
* flour tortillas
* refried beans
* shredded cheese

super yum, healthy, and extremely easy. a winner all around, i say. and a perfect sunday night meal for watching football with your man on the couch :)
